Band To Watch: Swapmeet
It's the songs. A lot of indie bands these days are filtering '90s alt-rock inspo through the lens of Alex G-era Bandcamp, but Swapmeet have the tunes to set them apart from the pack. The Adelaide quartet's 24-year-old members share songwriting duties and often switch instruments
It's the songs. A lot of indie bands these days are filtering '90s alt-rock inspo through the lens of Alex G-era Bandcamp, but Swapmeet have the tunes to set them apart from the pack. The Adelaide quartet's 24-year-old members share songwriting duties and often switch instruments, running the gamut from whispery beauty to explosive abrasion without ever losing the identity they've honed since first joining forces as teens. After signing with the reliably great Los Angeles indie label Winspear, they've spent half a year rolling out their debut album Mount Zero, and each subsequent single has further affirmed their mastery of the form.
